MgCl(2)-SiO(2)/TiCl(4) Ziegler-Natta catalysts for ethylene polymerization were prepared by impregnation of MgCl(2) on SiO(2) in heptane and further treatment with TiCl(4). MgCl(2)·nEtOH adduct solutions were prepared with various EtOH/MgCl(2) molar ratios for preparation of the MgCl(2)-supported and MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalysts in order to investigate the effect on polymerization perform...

Catalytic polymerization of ethylene in aqueous emulsion by in situ catalysts based entirely on compounds commercially available from standard chemicals suppliers, namely a chlorinated derivative of 1,4-benzoquinone, triphenylphosphine, and bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel, is reported. Using miniemulsions of catalyst solutions in a small amount of hydrocarbon solvent for polymerization, stable di...

bis(2-r-ind)zrcl2 (r: h or phenyl) was supported on different types of silica by in situ impregnation method and used for ethylene polymerization. in this method, the step of catalyst loading on support was eliminated and common alkyl aluminum (triisobutylaluminum, tiba) cocatalyst was used instead of expensive methyl aluminiumoxane (mao) cocatalyst in the polymerization. the effect of surface ...

High throughput screening (HTS) of a 205 member Schiff base salicylaldimine ligand library derived from salicylaldehydes bearing bulky ortho-substituents, i.e., 9-anthracenyl, 1,4,5,8-tetramethylanthracenyl or triptycenyl, reacted in-situ with (p-tolyl)CrCl2(thf)3, identified two new classes of highly active chromium based systems for the oligomerization and polymerization of ethylene, respecti...

ethylene polymerization was carried out using phillips chromium catalyst based on silica supports such as silicaaerogel, sio2 (grace 643), and titanium modified sio2 (g 643), and the results were compared with othercatalysts based on sio2 (aldrich), sba-15(hex), sba-15(sp) and mcm-41. a combination of tga, dsc, xrd,nitrogen adsorption, sem, icp, ftir and other analyses were used to characterize...

 A series of symmetric and asymmetric binuclear α-diimine nickel(II) complexes toward ethylene polymerization were successfully synthesized and characterized by 1HNMR. All the catalysts were typically activated with MAO and displayed good activity at room temperature under 1atm ethylene pressure. The symmetric catalyst containing isopropyl on l...

Aqueous coordination polymerization of ethylene by different neutral nickel(II) complexes [(X∧O)NiR(L)] (X ) P: type 1; X ) N: type 2) was investigated. With catalyst precursors of type 1, productivities and molecular weights were reduced by comparison to conventional polymerization in organic solvents. This effect results to a large extent from a lowering of the chain growth rate due to a low ...

Reaction of the ligand 2,4-tert-butyl-6-[(2-methylquinolin-8-ylimino)methyl]phenol (L(1)H) with [VOCl3] in the presence of triethylamine afforded the complex [VOCl2L(1)] (1), whereas use of [VO(OnPr)3] led to the isolation of [VO2L(1)] (2) or [VO2L(1)]·2/3MeCN (2·2/3MeCN). Reaction of 2-((2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)quinolin-8-ylimino)methyl)-4,6-R(1),R(2)-phenols (R(1) = R(2) = (t)Bu; L(2)H), ...

In this study, slurry polymerization kinetics of ethylene with TiCl4/Mg(OEt)2/AlR3 Ziegler-Natta catalysts in various conditions using the model of sum square error (SSE) (method I) and model of least square error (LSE) (Method II) was investigated. For this purpose the molecular weight distributions of the samples were deconvoluted to the minimum number of Flor...

The slurry polymerization of ethylene was studied by employing a (TiCl4/Mg(OEt)2/TEA) catalyst system in hexane. The effects of triethylaluminum concentration and temperature on polymer yield and polymer viscosity average molecular weight, Mv, were investigated. The maximum polymer yield was obtained at an Al/Ti molar ratio of 124. The highest yield and Mv were achieved at 60 °C. The concentrat...
